(some sentences left out in the transcribe)

The mind either wars against the King and his Kingdom or it is renewed… Being metaphorfied (metamorphosis as in a butterfly), being renewed.
The Renewed Mind is the same basic word that is used for the transforming of Jesus on the mountain in the transfiguration….
Jesus’s clothes radiated, his person is  radiating the presence of God.

I believe that is  the prophetic picture of what the renewed mind looks like, it actually radiates the reality of another world.

The renewed mind is to work in conjunction with heavenly realities so that become manifest on earth

Gorging on the Tree of Life

Ok so I left the house on the way to hub camp randomly around 11:00 am on Saturday.  Was going to leave later but I felt like that would make for a leisherly drive.   I wanted to have 3 hours of driving just percolating on the things of God and see what came of that.  As I drove I remembered through Hub Camp 2013 and at one point it hit me….  Just fell into my head….   Hub Camp is several days of giving a bunch of kids an opportunity to continuously eat from the Tree of Life.   A feast if you will and yes some gorge on it.  Some barely taste of it but that is where the change comes from… Eating from the Tree of Life.
